Watch This Photographer Get Mobbed By Soccer Team After Player Scores Crucial Goal (VIDEO)

If you think sports photographers are an underappreciated lot, check out this video that shows just how much athletes really care about sideline shutterbugs.

In the clip, a player for the Northampton Town Football Club (which is in the fourth tier of English football) scores on a free kick and then does a victory slide, which carries him into club photographer Pete Norton who is set up behind the endline. The rest of the team then piles on Norton in what looks like a rather uncomfortable group hug with the photographer.

Hopefully Norton's gear (and his limbs) were ok. Be careful what you wish for?
